# New year opens with nitrogen price cut - Farmers Weekly

> UK manufactured ammonium nitrate prices were cut by more than £10/t at the start of 2019, with product on farm around £278-£280/t for February delivery. Merchants expect a spring fertiliser logistics squeeze because farmer ordering is running 15-20% behind last year.
